Bringing up O's record prior to LSU is chicken sheet. No one did this with prior coaches.

If you want to criticize, do it based on what he is doing now, not what he did before being head coach of LSU.

Um, yes they did. It’s usually why they don’t get hired.

Is it because he was horrible?

Normally it isn’t brought up because teams dot hire coaches with horrible records previously as HC

Ok. As a head coach to LSU he's lost to State by the largest margin ever and to Troy.


Do those matter?

Well not many coaches we've hired has such an abysmal record before coaching here....

Because they tend to not get hired at legit schools.

Prior coaches did have records of historic level failure either.

It's not "chicken sheet." It's fair.

So are we not allowed to take a successful coach's past accomplishments into account when wanting to hire him as well?

They got their O faces on tonight. It's as if LSU is good and didn't lose to Troy.

Okay he got blown out by a bad Miss St team, looked like trash versus Syracuse at home, lost to Troy at home, and beat a very bad uf team missing like 15 players by a point bc their kicker missed an xp

It stinks but oh well

Lost to a terrible Miss State? Check.
Lost to Troy? Check.
Several instances of his input having a direct negative impact on the team's performance? Check.

Yeah, I'm fine with your stipulation.
